Firstly, NO!!! I'm not picking up the donuts in my yard. Having the donuts help me locate the sprinkler heads. If your going to have donuts, concrete donuts are the way to go, the cheapest and the most versatile. Starting to catch on to your game, of responding to everything written, to keep your name on this thread.

__________________I would think that home owners do the same thing (look out for their own lawn) The Villages doesn't have to keep working on sprinklers systems. Once set into place, its mostly maintenance (if any) to make sure sprinklers working correctly and are not getting clogged etc. Nothing to do with donuts. (Just like homeowners do) That's just a scare tactic!!!! Like NJBlue said "The requirement is grossly overstated" Villagers should not have to worry about the sprinkler heads like you say (so you can push your product on Villagers) If concrete donuts didn't work, how come 99.9% have them? Good Luck in your endeavor, but not playing game you want!! Have a nice day, and back to practical situations.
